MACUMBA
Four talented musicians will drive us into the explosive rhythms of Latin and World Music.
Enjoy a different approach to Latin rhythms, afro - cuban and brazilian funk, mixed-up with jazz.
‘’Macumba’’ quartet was formed in March of 2017, after the arrival of the Chilean bassist Rodrigo Cáceres to Cyprus, where he met Rodos Panagiotou, Elias Ioannou & Giorgos Morfitis, three very well-known musicians of the island. ‘’Macumba’’ performed at many Festivals such as Afrobanana Festival, Aglanjazz Festival, Windcraft Music Festival, Paradise Jazz Festival, Old Port Jazz Festival, Rialto Jazz & World Music Festival, etc. and regularly at many venues in Cyprus. They also performed at the Gardens of Sounds Festival in Katowice, Poland in June of 2019, attracting a wide and warm audience. Recently the band showed up at the TV program ‘’Roadtrip’’ at the RIK1 Channel.
